Yep. This is one of those songs where his whammy bar wankery fits perfectly!

I'm not kidding either. First time I hear him do this song it blew my mind.
Re: One of my favorite Jeff Beck performances
Solid choice, it's a great one. Always been one of my favorites as well.

Re: One of my favorite Jeff Beck performances
My favorite player ever. I don't think there is another player on the planet who approaches the guitar the same way.
Re: One of my favorite Jeff Beck performances
Seriously the best live guitarist I think I have ever seen. Some guys are monster players, but man, he just looked like a guy who was goofing off having the time of his life.

I think that's what separates the greats, they all have a unique style and approach the instrument from a completely different angle.

Re: One of my favorite Jeff Beck performances
Yeah, that is great. I saw him play that live and it was amazing.
He really has killer live guitar tone and very dynamic playing style.
His improvisational style seems to have this risk taking element. It's like at times he almost seems like doesn't have any idea what he's going to play next but just for the hell of it tries something that may or may not work and somehow it turns out anywhere from great to absolutely amazing. Not sure if that's the best way to explain it. This all come's though much more in person. Anyone considering going to see him live, i definitely recommend it.
